Rules & Regulations
Panels, workshops, and autograph sessions are held in private rooms. As such, there are additional rules and etiquette to abide by.
Some of our guests are visiting us from abroad so we put extra care into making sure their time during our events and in Malaysia goes as smoothly as possible. We understand that it is exciting to meet them, but often the case is that we can only accommodate a certain number of requests, especially during meet-and-greet or autograph sessions.
So, a pro tip is to get in line early, but most importantly, manage your expectations, because there is an off chance you may not get to enter these rooms due to high demand.
- Since we can only accommodate a certain number of audiences per panel/workshop, please get in line early according to our schedule to ensure your place for panel/workshop.
We operate on a first come first serve basis. HOWEVER, note that priority is given to Super Gaki Pass holders.
For Super Gaki Pass holders, you get priority for all panels/workshops, but note the following clauses:
1. One pass only accommodates one person for one session.
2. The pass may be loaned to others but point one before still applies.
3. Super Gaki Pass can only be used a maximum of 3 times.
- Do not stall the queue, jump the queue, and you are certainly not allowed to hold the queue for a group of friends.
- No outside food/drinks are allowed inside the panel/workshop room. Plain water is permitted.
- No flash photography or any form of recording (i.e., video, audio) is allowed within the panel/workshop room and autograph sessions unless stated otherwise.
- No heckling and disruptive behaviour is allowed in the room. If reported, you will be removed immediately.
- Put your phone on silent mode or turn it off to prevent disruptive ringtones or notifications during the panel/workshop.
- Minimize excessive conversations or discussions with other audiences to avoid disrupting them and the panel/workshop.
- Show respect and courtesy towards the guests and panelists, be mindful when you have the chance to ask them questions and make sure they are appropriate.
- For autograph sessions, you may get your AniManGaki Event Booklet and relevant official merchandise signed by the guests. No bootleg or irrelevant item is allowed. Always check with the staff in the room about the item you want signed before going up to the guest. Sometimes, the guests might have their own conditions as well and thus specifications might be made. No form of recording (i.e., photos, audio, video) is allowed during autograph sessions, unless specified otherwise.
- Special guests have their own personal criteria, please understand that we have the right to change certain policies according to their needs.
- Please take care of your belongings as we will not oversee any loss during the panel/workshop.
Upon entry of the panel/workshop space, you would have consented and agree to the following R&R, and we will remove you should you cause any trouble.
